Exactly Once Idempotent Consumer Store in Python
A mock key-value store that guarantees exactly-once processing by rejecting duplicate message keys in a message or event stream.
from collections import defaultdict
class ExactlyOnceStore:
def __init__(self):
self.processed = defaultdict(set)
self.data = {}
def consume(self, key, value):
if key in self.data:
return False
self.data[key] = value
return True

How to Aggregate Periodic Snapshot Data in Python
Generates mock snapshot data and groups values into periods to compute average aggregates with Python's standard library.
import random
from collections import defaultdict
def snapshot_aggregate(n=10, period=3):
data = defaultdict(list)
for i in range(n):
key = f"item_{i % period}"
data[key].append(random.randint(1, 100))
return dict(data)
def aggregate_periodic(snapshots, period=3):
result = {}
